    If it helps IMR4831 is a close match for N560. There is some data here for 160g bullets that will give you a starting point: https://shootersreference.com/reloadingdata/280-remington/

    Couldn't agree more. I see it all the time on reloading pages on face book, someone asking about loads for "x" rifle in "x" caliber, the amount of replies that are well over book max is ridiculous. I...

    I'm running 55.5gr 2209 behind a 162. Hard bolt lifts start around 56gr for my rifle. If you overlay the 7mm SAUM and 7-6.5PRC cases they are almost identical. I'm sure there are small...
